While I acknowledge that OG candy canes are supposed to be peppermint, I had a Skittles one last year and was kind of pleasantly surprised. 

Agreed. I also feel like the pandemic threw a wrench into game development, to the point that these “next gen” consoles still haven’t seen any true “next gen” games we were promised. This trailer does look like a game that could potentially tap the full strength of these consoles. The lighting is insane, and if they…

They need more time perfecting the booty clap physics.

They require fuel. Calories. Just 5 miles in 20 minutes (15mph leisurely pace) is 250-275 calories. Probably a good thing today, but a terrible thing when there isn’t any food or water left.

At least one of his prior accusers said he groped her while drunkenly posing for selfies. I wonder if that is the underlying reason for his current sobriety, at which point I’m kind of surprised he’s even discussing it. 

Why anyone would listen to a celebrity for any type of advice is beyond me. They are either peddling products for profit or are flexing their ability to jump on whatever fickle trend that is “hot” on the market because they can afford to do so without much thought, effort, or financial burden.

Them being fireworks means practically nothing given there was 42 lbs of them. Put inside a metal container that can only handle 25 lbs, and you just turned them into one giant pipe bomb.

On the coast? Probably not a great long term strategy. Inland/central Florida? Maybe a bit safer considering places like Orlando have 80+’ elevation over sea level. Who knows. Maybe you buy in Orlando and you’re beach front in 25 years.

One year suspended prison sentence for the unlicensed pilot who used a plane as a guillotine and a $22k fine for the company, of which half was suspended? Does indeed sound like a lil whoopsie as far as the French authorities are concerned.

I personally don’t think it deserves the praise it often gets, but I will acknowledge it is at least well made. The story is basically fan service from start to finish, with as predictable and historically nonsensical of a punchline as one could imagine for such a work. But despite its simplistic plot and cookie…

Black Rain is an excellent movie and captures Tokyo noir so well that I thought it must have been a high profile Japanese production the first time I saw it. 

My bad. Meant Columbia lady. 

Was Paramount missing too, or am I blind? (not going through another slide show). 

Holy shit! I came to post this, but worried it was too obscure, but meanwhile it’s sitting up top.

Her mistake was just a matter of pricing perception. Tell someone to buy “cookies” for $28, and people flip out because that’s too on-the-nose high for just cookies.

but that interior looks relatively unaffected by high temps in general.

True. He’s also the single largest shareholder of the company at 16.52%. The second biggest is Saudi Arabia at 7.85%. While a board of directors, if there is one, could still technically fire him, he holds a lot of clout being both CEO and largest shareholder.

Yes, but there is never a zero percent chance of death while driving. That is something everyone accepts when entering a motor vehicle and the reason why safety devices like seat belts and airbags exist to mitigate those odds. There should be a zero percent chance at dying making Thanksgiving dinner, but here we are.…

Yes. I already said it shouldn’t burn down one’s house. And I don’t think you need to state one is stupid if they do. That’s pretty much implied by the outcome.

Seems like the gamble is to be the loss leader in order to steal Tesla’s market share, and doing so by making actual nicely built vehicles. And I could see why that might be tempting at the moment. Tesla’s build quality hasn’t improved much and Musk can’t get his own foot out of his mouth, turning off lots of people…
